Fifth Anniversary Video Podcast

Today is ESL Podcast’s five-year anniversary. It’s hard for us to believe that we have produced more than 600 ESL Podcast episodes and over 250 English Cafe episodes!

As always, we thank you, our wonderful listeners for sticking with (staying with; continuing with) us. We would like to especially thank our donors and Learning Guide members, who are the true ESL Podcast heroes. Without you, we could not do the work that we do. Thank you for your continued support!

To celebrate our fifth anniversary, we have produced the Fifth Anniversary Video Podcast. In it, you will see how Jeff spends his day. We hope you enjoy it!

~ Jeff, Lucy, and the entire ESL Podcast Team

Welcome to English as a Second Language Podcast’s Fifth Anniversary Video. You know, a lot of people ask me what I do for a living, and I tell them I’m a podcaster. And they say, “But, Jeff, what do you actually do all day?” This video will answer that question.

Oh, hi! I’m starting my day answering e-mail. Just let you finish this one e-mail.
?”Dear President Obama,
Thank you for your question.
If there is time I will explain the meaning of Mickey Mouse ears on our next English Café.” (He’s always writing me!)
“P.S. Please don’t write so often. I have a podcast to run.”

Well, that’s enough work for this morning. Let’s go get some lunch!

Well it’s lunchtime, and I’m hungry. You know, I always eat a healthy meal, nothing but the most healthy food for me. Here I go.

“Hello? Lucy! Oh, right…no, I’m working very hard. I’ve almost finished that podcast. Oh, absolutely! Oh, I’ll have it to you first thing in the morning. Okay, thanks for calling.” I can never get any sleep in this job.

Well, I’m done working now, and when I’m done working, I like to relax and watch my favorite baseball team, the Los Angeles Dodgers. I have my Los Angeles Dodgers cup, my hat, and of course my shirt. Baseball, as you know, is one of the great American sports, and I think, uh…goooooooooool!

Well, it’s evening time now and I try to relax a little by reading a good book. There are lots of good books out there. The one I’m reading is pretty interesting. It’s an excellent book and the author, I think, is, well, pretty smart.

Well it’s time for bed, but before I go, I want to thank all of you who listen to ESL Podcast. This is our fifth anniversary. I want to thank you for listening over the past year, and hope that you will continue listening for many more years to come. I especially want to thank our donors and our ESL Podcast Learning Guide members. These are the people who help make ESL podcast possible, so thank you especially to those of you who are members or donors.

I also want to thank Adriano, Jessica, Sue, Warren, and all the rest of our ESL Podcast team. A special thanks to our own Dr. Lucy Tse.

Dear ESL Podcast Team,
All our gratefulness for your huge work, for the merry jokes and songs and for your effort to make us healthy, wealthy,and wise.
I like the Podcast’s Fifth Anniversary Video. Very original and courageous. Thank you.

Jeff, Lucy, ESL team, congratulations and thank you very much.
I have said it several times but actually you have changed my life in so many ways that I feel ESL as something of my own too.
You are my dear friends and you know it quite well.

Your voices, your good humor and your marvellous teaching have fulfilled the last years of my life. After so long time of
studing English at last I feel some improvement till the point of reading some books and what is more important sharing ideas and living experiences with other friend through your Blog.

Lucy I am really fond of all your scrips and I like your good looking in the video, yes a nice beautiful girl as I always imagine.

ESL I want you, I need you, I really love you.

Now more seriously….
Jeff you look splendid in this video, even younger, but please do not work so much, I think you need some rest.
Another suggestion….saying GOOOOOOOOLLLLL you should jump frenetically dance and move your arms as a mad man, also some tears could complete the scene more or less as I did some days ago.

Dear Jeff, Lucy, and the entire ESL Podcast Team
Congratulations, I appreciate your work. I hope you will be healthy, wealthy, and happy for ever. You are my best teachers in English and sometimes I wish I can rub elbows with you.
Thanks’ for everything

Everyday I listen to your voice and now some sentences, like “Welcome to English as a Second Language Podcast”, “I’m your host, Dr Jeff Mc Quillan”,… and many other sentences, are always sounded in my mind, all the time. I’m really addicted to your ESL Podcasts. Thank you all for working so hard.
Go Dr. Jeff! Go Dr. Lucy!
Congratulations to your fifth anniversary

It was so nice to see you this time, frankly speaking, I was a bit dissappointed cos Lucy was not there.
Hopefully I wanna see you next annversary.
I’m really a fun of her skits cos they’re always so attractive and full of useful expressions for listeners abroad.

Anyway, I appreciate you & all of ESL staffs from my heart in Japan.
I alwasy use for free, but I will support you with personal donation sometime A.S.A.P., when I get some money
with investing japan equity & some stocks. Japan’s growing, maybe.

Here some small questions for you.
First. Do you have a breakfast? You had better have it for your more health.
Second. Have you seen Nomo of dogers? I’m a huge fun, he’s an alive legend here. He was so cool.
